Mr. CEO, You're Just A Substitute novel Chapter 39

There were no angry expressions on her face when Starry said it and she looked at Filip indifferently.

Her words were casual and so was the move when she put the envelope in front of him.

She then pulled back her hand and took a glance at Filip, "Enough is enough."

Then she took a step back, "Sorry to bother you."

She nodded a little, being polite with courtesy like that envelope was just a normal file about work.

Seeing Starry walking away, Filip didn't feel a thing.

He frowned with an extremely cold face.

He understood what Starry meant and he also knew about what Lucia had done to her.

But he didn't know what Lucia did this time.

To be honest, he hated Lucia more than he hated Starry.

Austin was just about to get Starry a cup of tea but then he saw Starry walk out of the office.

He was dumbfounded, "Ms. Bradley, do you need a ride?"

Austin had been Filip's secretary for many years and he got quick thinking.

Starry looked at him with a smile, "No need, Robertson."

She nodded and walked into the elevator as she said it.

The internal phone on Austin's desk rang when he called Albert's name.

Austin had a sense that something had happened, "Give Ms. Bradley a ride."

Albert nodded, "Okay."

Austin put the cup of tea he was about to give Starry on the desk and then picked up the phone. Filip just said" Come in" on the phone.

The less he said, the greater the thing was.

Austin fixed his suit and knocked on the office door.

"Mr. Pearson?"

Filip took a look at him and pushed the envelope Starry left which slid over and fell off the desk to the ground with a huge sound.

Austin glanced at Filip and got nervous.

He picked it up, took out what was inside, and quickly took a look at them.

Austin got more terrified and even frowned, "Mr. Pearson, do you mean..." No wonder Starry would come to Filip, Lucia really crossed the line this time. They let what happened in the last two months go because Filip didn't want to hurt the relationship between their family.

But Lucia had updated her game to malign Starry which made Starry come to Filip, then Filip wouldn't just stand by and let it happen this time.

"Make a dinner appointment for me with Lucia tonight."

Starry also smiled and reached out her hand to shake with him, "Yes, Mr. Wood."

Bentley showed the way in front of her and pushed the chair out for her when they arrived at their seat, "You look prettier than I imagined."

"Thanks."

Starry sat down and tried not to wrinkle her clothes, and said with a smile, "You are gentler than I thought."

Bentley didn't fancy courtesies and so did Starry. So they cut to the chase after ordering drinks.

"Ms. Bradley, it seems that those comments online are bad to you but they are actually good if you have enough proof to prove that you didn't plagiarize. And the more they talk about it online, the better they'll be."

Starry nodded, "I do have proof."

She took the iPad out of her purse and handed it to Bentley, "I let my editor find out that Iris is also the Discerner. And I know this wasn't legally gotten information but I think you know better than me how to get this legally."

"I started to write Make a Show eight years ago and the manuscript is on my another blog and I had been keeping it private. But I think the posting date on it is enough to prove that I wrote Make a Show a year earlier than her Queen's Counterattack."

"This is the chatting records of me and the Discerner and I gave my first draft to her once."

Starry took a sip of coffee and waited for Bentley to see through the proof after she finished her words.

Bentley skimmed faster than Starry thought, "Ms. Bradley, your proof is more useful and detailed than I thought."

And he finally realized why Starry hadn't responded to this or posted any statement these days.

He had to admit that he admired her calmness and prudery.
